Analysis of fur production records for registered traplines in the AOSERP study area, 1970-75
Download1978
Between 1970 and 1975, the AOSERP study area contained up to 131 registered trapping areas (traplines). Traplines averaged 165.8 km2 (64 mi 2) in area. For the four trapping seasons 1971-72 to 1974-75, affidavits reporting trapper harvests were available for an average of 75 percent of the...

Application of Forward Osmosis Membrane Technology for Oil Sands Process-Affected Water Desalination
Download2014-10-01
The extraction process used to obtain bitumen from the oil sands produces large volumes of oil sands process-affected water (OSPW). As a newly emerging desalination technology, forward osmosis (FO) has shown great promise in saving electrical power requirements, increasing water recovery, and...

Fall 2014
The extraction of bitumen from oil sands in Alberta, Canada, leads to the creation of tailings that are contained in lake-sized ponds under zero discharge policy. Stratification of tailings over time leads to the formation of mature fine tailings (MFT), an oil based emulsion containing residual...
